Telmikind 40 mg Tablet

Telmikind 40 Tablet – Telmisartan from Mankind Pharma

Telmikind 40 from Mankind Pharma Ltd provides Telmisartan 40 mg in a 15-tablet strip – a slightly larger pack than most telmisartan brands, useful for a fortnight of once-daily dosing without a mid-course refill. Telmisartan relaxes blood vessels to lower blood pressure and is considered suitable for prolonged use once your doctor has confirmed the right dose for you.

• Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor, at the same time each day.
